portable fish farm

Li Yu carried a bunch of Spanish mackerel and a five or six-pound splendid lobster in one hand, carrying diving gear on his back, and walked home humming a tune.Splendid lobster is named for its colorful body, and it is also a type of lobster that can grow up relatively large, the largest even weighing more than ten catties.

"You didn't catch too many catches today, so you went to play again?" Li Zhenggang, who was also Li Yu's third uncle, was coming towards him, carrying a bucket with some crabs, octopus, tide-watching, etc., all for catching the sea. .Don't look at the big bucket, but the value can't compare with the splendid lobster in Li Yu's hand.

"Third Uncle, look at what you said, I'm not going fishing now, or I won't have dinner yet." Li Yu said, and what he was holding in his hand was dinner.

"You kid can eat such a big lobster! Sell it for sale, it won't cost a fortune?" Li Zhenggang wanted to touch Li Yu's head.

"My grandfather hasn't been working hard recently, so I'll take it back and make up for him," Li Yu said.

"Even if you have a conscience, it's not easy for your grandfather to drag you around for so many years. I think back then, when your mother brought you back, you just..." Li Zhenggang began to talk about ancient times again.

Li Yu followed his grandfather. In that feudal era, a woman came back with a child, but no man followed her, so she suffered some gossip.

Li Yu's relatives are not well-connected, he has never met his grandmother, and his mother died of illness when he was just sensible.He has also lived with his grandfather in Xiaonan Village for 18 years, and he dropped out of school just last year.

Thinking about the beating his grandfather gave him when he dropped out of school, Li Yu still feels pain in his body.But he deserved it. During the college entrance examination, he handed in blank papers in every subject, and sincerely stopped studying.Originally quite good grades, everyone is not worth it for him.

In fact, it's not that Li Yu doesn't want to study, and he really can't continue to study because he has no money!Xiaonan Village used to be a place rich in fish, but later moved to several factory buildings, the sea water here was destroyed by sewage, and the seafood disappeared.Although these factory buildings were ordered to be taken away by the government two years ago, the disasters left behind are still there.

And young people who have no jobs have also left their hometowns and gone to work in cities.Here in Xiaonan Village, only the old and the young are left, and even fewer people go to sea.On weekdays, at most, a group of old people and children go to catch the sea, or catch some fish at the seaside.

"Third uncle, I'm going back first, the house is still waiting for this thing to be cooked!" Li Yu hurried away.

"This kid, he's lucky. He can touch lobsters in this bay, tsk tsk...but he's just a little lazy." Seeing Li Yu slipping away, Li Zhenggang shook his head and sighed.

***

When Li Yu returned home with the fish and lobsters, he saw his grandfather Li Zhengxue looking at the door. After seeing him, his grandfather hurried into the house again, pretending not to see him.It is said that his grandfather's temper is getting more and more difficult for him to understand.

"Grandpa, I touched a lobster and hooked some Spanish mackerel. Come and clean it up." Li Yu's hooking is not fishing like ordinary people.Instead, a long fishing line is tied with a lot of hooks, and then bait made of dried shrimp is hung on it, and these fishing lines are put into the sea.It is quite a bit like Jiang Taigong fishing, and those who wish to take the bait mean.Spanish mackerel is easy to catch. Generally, when the hook is collected, it is in a string.

"Lobster! Alright, I'm going right now... Well, Xiao Yu, you should do it. Grandpa is feeling a bit uncomfortable today." Li Zhengxue just wanted to enter the kitchen, but then retreated, blocking the door to the inner room firmly. .

"Uncomfortable? Where are you, Grandpa..."

"Wow...wow..." Before Li Yu finished speaking, there was a burst of crying from his grandfather's room, full of anger, and he knew that the child was in good health.

"Grandpa! Why do we have children in our family?" Li Yu said and walked into the house.

When he saw the little baby lying on the big bed in his grandfather's room, Li Yu couldn't help but go up and poke the baby's face.

it is true!This was the only thing Li Yu thought of at the time.

"Xiao Yu, I think this child is very destined for us, why don't we raise it. I saw it when I went for a walk on the beach today. At that time, the baby was crying and crying, and his face was flushed from crying. I think It's like seeing you crying and crying like this when you were young... In a blink of an eye, you are so old, and grandpa can't care about you anymore, and you don't even discuss important things like studying with grandpa... "

"Grandpa, you can raise it if you want!" Li Yu hastily interrupted his grandfather, and the matter of not studying is his excuse. Every time his grandfather mentions it, he bursts into tears.

"Xiao Yu, do you agree? Then our little shell will stay at home from now on, my baby." Li Zhengxue hugged the doll happily.This child is also good, and if someone holds her, it will not be bitter.

Well, even the name has been chosen!Li Yu frowned, his grandfather was really determined to adopt this child.However, "If the child's relatives come to the door, we have to return the child. Take it first, and I will go to the town to ask. If we can't find the child's relatives, we will take the child, and I will ask Ask how to deal with the adoption procedures, and the baby will also be able to apply for household registration and study in the future. There are other people watching you pick up the baby today, and when the police come, don’t say we just kidnapped it?”

"Okay, many people outside looked at this kid today, so no one said he was abducted. Look at the little shells, Xiaoyu, and I'll make lobsters!" Li Zhengxue went to work in the kitchen happily.Li Yu's cooking skills are not good, but Li Zhengxue's cooking skills are not good, but people in this village cook simply, which cannot compare to the taste of restaurants.

Li Yu hugged the milk baby who stayed in his arms and didn't cry, and looked at the small stone courtyard outside the door, Li Yu's thoughts also drifted away...

Now, people in Xiaonan Village say that he should eat fishing, just like his name, and they don't regret that he didn't go to college.It is said that he is lucky and courageous, and can make a fortune by fishing.

In fact, no one knows the reason why he made up his mind to go fishing instead of studying.

His grandfather is also old, and there is no one to support him, so it must be difficult for him to go to college.So Li Yu planned not to study for a long time. He originally planned to go out to work, but he never expected that one day he would have an adventure at the seaside.

It was before the college entrance examination. He wanted to give up the college entrance examination and come to the beach to relax.But he didn't expect that when he opened his mouth and yelled to vent his depression, something fell into his mouth from the sky.

That night, he dreamed that he was in a place called "No. 7 Fishing Ground".It was a small blue ocean, crystal clear, but there was no living thing.There is also a sandy beach beside the sea, and the soft sandy beach is very comfortable to step on.There is no sun overhead, but it is very warm inside the No. 7 fishing ground.

When he woke up the next day, Li Yu remembered the dream last night very clearly.It made him doubt the authenticity of the No. 7 fishing ground.Thinking of the golden fingers of boys in his class reading novels in high school, Li Yu felt that maybe he was really blessed by heaven.

Thinking of entering the No. 7 fishing ground, Li Yu really entered the small ocean in his dream.Li Yu is very smart, and he didn't say anything when he got the No. 7 fishing ground. Instead, he looked at the empty fishing ground and thought about feeding some seafood in it.

So when I was rushing to the sea, I quietly put in some sea crabs and scallops. Unexpectedly, these sea crabs and scallops began to grow and reproduce like crazy in the No. 7 fishing ground.It was also because of this that Li Yu felt that with the No. 7 fishing ground, he and his grandfather's livelihood could be solved.During the college entrance examination, I resolutely handed in all blank papers...

What Li Yu didn't expect was that he could breathe in the water, and he completely ignored the water pressure!This made him crazy, rowing the small wooden boat that his grandfather used to go to sea when he was young, he dared to sail to the sea beyond the bend.But he didn't dare to tell his grandfather that every time he used the bait made from the sea water in the No. [-] fishing ground, he could catch many strange fish.

Nowadays, the life of Li Yu and his grandfather is enjoyable because Li Yu occasionally sells some rare fish.However, Li Yu didn't think about doing anything spectacular with the No. 7 fishing ground. Occasionally, when there was a lot of harvest, he would put some fish, shrimp and crabs into the No. 7 fishing ground.The current fishing ground is getting bigger and bigger.

After earning money, Li Yu bought diving equipment specially to cover up his ability to breathe underwater without fear of water pressure.Li Yu also bought a lot of books on marine life and the environment. In his spare time, his grandfather would like to see him reading books at home.

"Even if you're not in school anymore, you can't put this book down for the rest of your life." This is what Li Zhengxue said to Li Yu when he saw Li Yu reading the first marine product book he bought.
